Hi everyone,

i just started to create my own BiRT report templates by using the latest Version of BiRT 4,20. After some try an error i created a report template which works in the BiRT editor.

When i upload the template file to the Assyst report section i get an “invalid File” error message. 

I also tried to edit an IFS distributed report-template whith no success. Here i get some different error messages like “file is invalid for the report wizard, a minimum of one filter parameter is needed”. When  i edit the file in the BiRT editor and try to save it i get a hint that this fiel was created with an earlier verison of BiRT.

Does anyone have an idear how i can create a working template for assyst? Or which version of BiRT i need to create a compatible reportfile?
 

thanks & kind regards

Daniel

Hello Daniel,

 

You’ll need to use the following installation package:
birt-report-designer-all-in-one-4.5.0-20150619-win32-win32-x86.zip

The installation package for BIRT can be downloaded from the BIRT Website. It is important to choose the appropriate package for assyst
Installation guidance is also available on the same site.

BIRT BIRT | BIRT

For more details on dashboard setup and additional guidance, please refer to the wiki page linked below:

Hope this helps!

Best Regards

First you need to be using the correct version. We are now using BIRT 4.18 since 25R1 but 4.5.0 will work, you just can’t use a later version than the version installed.

The error is because you are loading the report to the Report Wizard that requires specific parameters to be configured. You may still be able to upload it a dashboard report or a Full Page report (appears in the menu). Which is best is dependent on the physical size of the report. These do not need special parameter but please not the parameter interface in the preferences screen does not support multi-select.

For more detail see the document attached to this resource page:

 

 
There is a starter report wizard reports attached too.
